WHAT WE DO

THE HORSES:

• We offer sanctuary, alternative work opportunities and retirement to horses-in-need. 
• Our aim is the ideal of "no horse/human left behind." 
• Most horses arrive at our barn doors with physical and/or behavioral challenges.
• We offer rehabilitation to these horses, to the best of their abilities, and give them the opportunity to engage in new careers as: 4-H team horses, NAHRA horses, lesson horses, companion horses and EAGALA EAP & EAL horses.  For those whose best interest is a simple retirement filled with love and devotion, we offer them hospice and sanctuary.

THE HUMANS:

• Horses possess an innate ability to heal human hearts and souls. 
• In working with the horses, we discovered an unexpected payoff: In the process of rehabilitating our horses we have found, and experienced, growth, learning and often rehabilitation in ourselves as humans.
• As mentioned above, we offer a wide-variety of equine experiences, participants can engage in: volunteer service-work to the horses, EAGALA certified EAP (Equine Assisted Psychotherapy) & EAL (Equine Assisted Learning,) 4-H group activities (strictly adhering to 4-H guidelines), riding lessons with certified & pre-certified instructors, the administrative side of our foundation and referrals to NAHRA Certified therapeutic riding programs.
